The head of the UN mission responding to the Ebola emergency in West Africa has said that there's a critical need for hundreds more health workers to join the fight against the disease. Antony Banbury urged governments around the world to support their deployment1, and to avoid any actions that would dissuade2 them from helping3. His warning was echoed by the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon who criticized mandatory4 quarantine restrictions5 imposed on health workers returning from the affected6 region by several countries and cities.?
联合国西非埃博拉援助小组表示目前急需数百名医护人员加入到对抗埃博拉疫情队伍中来。Antony Banbury督促世界各国政府对他们的行动提供支持，避免任何阻碍遏制疫情发展的事情发生。此番讲话被联合国秘书长潘基文对批评部分国家对从疫情国家归国的医护人员进行强制检疫一事上引用。
Returning health workers who had managed to avoid infection are exceptional people. They should not be subjected to restrictions that have no scientific bases. They should not be stigmatized7 for their selfless service. We depend on them to fight this battle.?
归国医护人员没有感染上埃博拉病毒本身就是一件幸事。他们不应该受到没有科学依据的任何限制。他们不应该被视为无私服务。我们需要他们来对抗埃博拉病毒。

A global body monitoring attempts to end polio has described Pakistan's program as a disaster. The independent monitoring board is made up of polio experts and reports to the World Health Organization. Pakistan accounted for 80% of new cases this year. But its government blames the current surge on the Taliban who attacked vaccination9 teams. Here is G. G.?
全球监测机构试图结束巴勒斯坦小儿麻痹恐慌，并称巴勒斯坦的计划几乎就像是一场灾难。独立监督委员会由小儿麻痹专家组成并向世卫组织直接报道。巴基斯坦今年小儿麻痹病例增加了80%。但是其政府却责怪是塔利班袭击了接种疫苗人群。G. G.发回报道。
The report by the independent monitoring board said Pakistan's program continues to flounder hopelessly as its virus flourishes. It was now the major stumbling block to polio eradication10, it said, and went on to describe the level of political commitment and the involvement of civil society as totally inadequate11. It recommends that its program is handed at once to the country's disaster management body which deals with emergencies like floods and earthquakes.?
来自独立监督委员会的报道称巴勒斯坦的计划对控制病毒没有任何作用。目前根除小儿麻痹是最主要的绊脚石，他说，并且描述政治承诺水平和群众社会参与是不足够的。其建议巴勒斯坦计划应立刻交给应对如洪水，地震之类突发事件的国家灾难管理机构。

法国人民听说国家文化部长在过去两年时间里没有读过书感到震惊。部长Fleur Pellerin在接受电视采访提到纪念诺贝尔文学奖得主Patrick Modiano的时候做出此番表态。下面是本台记者Lucy Williamson发挥的报道。
In the interview yesterday, Mrs. Pellerin described having had a wonderful lunch with the writer in question, Patrick Modiano, but wasn't able to say which of his titles she preferred because she said she hadn't had time to read his books or indeed any others since taking up a ministerial post two years ago. Mrs. Pellerin's comments have caused a lively debate on social media with some accusing her of being a technocrat12 but many sympathize with her situation.?

A painting sold by the auction15 house Sotheby's in London for 83,000 dollars is at the center of a legal battle amid claims that it could be the work of the Baroque-Italian master Caravaggio and worth over 20 million dollars. In 2006 the then owner of the painting Bill S. asked Sotheby's for their opinion. They said it was a replica16. The owner then sold it but the buyer claimed it was an original. Shane Pill reports.
伦敦苏富比拍卖行以83000美元价格起拍售备受争议的巴洛克风格大师卡拉瓦乔作品，价值超过2000万美元。在2006年这幅作品的拥有者Bill S.向苏富比拍卖行寻求意见。他们称这是一件复制品。随后作品拥有者卖掉了这件作品，但是买家称此作品是原作品。Shane Pill发回报道。
It's called the Card Shops, and it depicts17 a wealthy young man at a card table falling victim to two cheats. As the trial got underway Henry Legg the lawyer representing Mr. S. said the issue is not whether the painting was by the Italian Baroque master; the core of the case, he said, was negligence18 and had claimed that Sotheby's had failed to thoroughly19 research the painting or consult outside experts. Sotheby's denies negligence.
这副作品名叫the Card Shop，描绘了一张桌子上有一位有钱的年轻人，遭到了两个骗子的蛊惑。随着审判的进行，S. 的代表律师Henry Legg称问题不是这副作品到底是不是出自意大利巴洛克大师之手，案件的核心问题是，他说是工作失职问题。并称苏富比没有深入研究此作品也没有咨询外部专家。但是苏富比方面否认这一失职行为。
A man who has spent 19 years on death row in Nigeria and came within moments of being executed has been released. According to Amnesty International, the prisoner was last year taken to be hanged when his guards suddenly realized that he was actually supposed to be shot. The delay enabled lawyers to question the fairness of the military tribunal that convicted him. Amnesty International says Mr. E. has been freed by the governor of Kaduna State.
尼日利亚一名用19年时间等待死刑的犯人在被执行死刑的时候被释放。根据国际大赦法，去年在犯人执行绞刑的时候他的卫兵突然意识到此犯人应该被处以枪决。这一延迟促使律师对军事法庭做出的判决提出质疑。大赦国际称E.已经被卡杜纳州州长释放。
